Esther 3:3-5

Jubilee Bible 2000

³ Then the king’s slaves, who were in the king’s gate, said unto Mordecai, Why dost thou pass over the king’s commandment?

⁴ Now it came to pass, when they spoke daily unto him, and he did not hearken unto them, that they told Haman to see whether Mordecai’s word would stand; for he had told them that he was a Jew.

⁵ And when Haman saw that Mordecai did not kneel or worship before him, then Haman was filled with wrath.
